Saving Money on Floral Displays

Weekly Wedding Tip
brought to you by bridalguide.com

"Save money on costly floral centerpieces by using your bridesmaids' bouquets to decorate the head table or the cake table."

I think placing your bridesmaids bouquets around the cake table is a great idea. Not only will it add a nice touch to the cake display, but it will keep their bouquets in a safe place while they enjoy the party. If using the bridesmaids' bouquets at the head table, you might consider placing an empty vase with water at each bridesmaid's reception table setting. Not only will the presentation look nice, but it will keep their bouquets looking like they were just picked (especially perfect for outdoor summer receptions). And another option for the bridesmaids' bouquets could be as a colorful display on the buffet table. Will you be using your bridesmaids' bouquets to help decorate your reception location?
